H2O is an "empty-pocket" shelf, designed to be placed in a hall, bedroom or study. It has a multifunctional surface that means that the accessories that you normally carry in your pocket, such as keys, coins, wallets, mobile phones, are always at hand. It also incorporates a cavity to place postal correspondence, photographs or other documents. The optional wall bracket, hidden inside the shelf once installed, can have 3 or 5 discrete hangers to suspend all kinds of garments or other accessories.
The wood used for the shelf is Fresno. Its structural solidity and neutral aspect seemed suitable attributes for this function. The numerically-controlled mechanization has allowed us to provide a series of discreet and versatile sections, which also connect and conceal the metal support.
With the intention of preserving the ash’s natural appearance in its pure state, we have applied a finish with transparent, toxin-free, water-based varnish for protection. The format is also intentional; right down to the original size of the wooden plank (52x150mm.) in order to make the most of the material which exudes an air of coherency and respect.
The metal support allows for easy fixing onto the wall as well as the binding of the wooden shelf. Its 3mm thick, laser-cut and folded aluminum structure offers lightness and adequate strength. It is finished in white by means of a textured and matt powder paint, giving discretion to this structural element. (45x14,5x10 cm.)
